Hi,
I see the problem, it also affect this block title, maybe others
– https://www.screencast.com/t/MIQSERliH
The titles are there is both cases, but are invisible due to a white background color
– https://www.screencast.com/t/t68Pdv8rLTsg
Did you maybe set a white background color in the general header settings?
– https://www.screencast.com/t/IrtOqMeldI9
Please try to clear it or set a different color and check again.
Thanks
Hi,
I see the problem, but there are a lot more problems that the images not showing. For example the header search is not working, the block pagination next/prev is not working, news ticker is not working etc.
This would mean that the theme javascript is broken. There are some errors in the console
– https://www.screencast.com/t/5fV5Ja7WZB
The first step to take in such cases is to investigate plugins, or custom code entered in the theme panel or theme files (like scripts for example). Chances are a plugin is conflicting with the theme, in most cases that is the cause.
Thanks
Hi,
The h1 of the page will be the logo (if there is no page title). All the article titles are h3, so each grid, block etc will display the post titles in a h3. Block titles will be h4.
If you want to change this you would have to make modifications in the theme code. For example a modification like this will affect all the modules at once (article titles)
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-change-home-page-postarticle-headings/
Or like this for the block titles – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-block-title-to-h1-rather-than-h4/
Only the title element has settings to choose a heading style

Hi,
I have been adding some additional custom field values (with the acf plugin), to the flex block 1 module located in /includes/modules/td_module_flex_1.php
I am trying to write a code that makes a span class disappear if the custom field is empty. Via css I’m adding a comma, since the field concertlocation comes behind earlier metadata.
However if I program it like the code below, the span class simply doesn’t show up at all. the this->post_ID is necessary since the data is to be shown on an overview page, where some articles don’t have that field “concertlocatie”. What am I missing here, anyone ?
<span class="td-author-date">
<?php if( $author_photo != '' ) { echo $this->get_author_photo(); } ?>
<?php echo $this->get_author();?>
<?php echo $this->get_date();?>
<?php $concertlocatie = the_field( "concertlocatie" , $this->post->ID ); //etc...?>
<?php if ( $concertlocatie ) : ?><span class="metacelocation"><?php echo $concertlocatie; ?><?php endif; ?></span>
<?php echo $this->get_comments();?>
</span>
</div>
the css
.home .metacelocation:before,
.category-306 .metacelocation:before {
content: ', ';
text-transform: none;
font-weight: normal;
color: #aaa;
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
top: 2px;
}
Hi,
All blocks have a limit setting – https://www.screencast.com/t/hC8Fqkd9
So you can set any limit you want for each block, then the block will initially load the number of posts set there.
All blocks have pagination as well (not numbered)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Zdufhonu
So for example you could set a next/prev pagination. Let’s say a block has a limit of 5 posts and a next/prev pagination. Using the pagination will load an additional 5 posts.
This is the case for all the pagination types, they will load the number of posts according to the limit set.
That issue you are describing with the tagDiv composer could be solved by entering the code provided in the bottom of the requirements guide, in the htaccess file
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
Many similar issues were solved with this solution. You could give it a try. Let us know.
Thanks
Hi,
That space is set by default, and if you do not want to use custom css you can use the css from the block and set it with “-” https://www.screencast.com/t/TuWsl0oSg068 .
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi,
You can display a read more button in the module using flex blocks for example. Like this example with flex block 1
– https://www.screencast.com/t/UvFKQlEcDZc
There also are some default blocks that display a read more button. There is a list with them in this topic
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/read-more-button-and-cant-change-title-color/
The more tag is not used by the theme, it will have no effect if you enter it in the post content.
Thanks
I have somewhat solved the problem with Flex Block 1. However, I cannot make the individual posts the same height. The heights depend on the length of title. Please let me know if there is an option already.
For example: if you go to bbc.com, the 3 posts shown after News, or Sports – they all show the sub-categories in the same vertical location. But in the theme, it depends on the title length.
On my homepage, I’d like to use Big Grid 7 to show my most recent posts, and under it, I’d like to use multiple Block 2s to show recent posts in five different categories. However, I’d like the Block 2s to only use 2/3 of the page width while the other 1/3 is dedicated to a widget sidebar. How can I change the row layout so that it is full width for the Big Grid 7 and split into two for the Block 2s/sidebar?
one more thing
This theme provides a floating block with buttons to share how here, example:
https://authentictheme.com/grind/2016/05/02/fun-things-to-do-in-rome/

Let me provide an example of what I want. The Block 56 (in fast news demo) is very close to my expectation:
https://cloud.tagdiv.com/block-56-fast-news/
However, I cannot set the title fonts here. More importantly, after saving it as an element, I could not replicate the exact same thing, the output I got had the titles flashed with the left border unlike the demo.
Additionally, even though I can control how many posts I want to show, I could not control the filter as there was no option. Can I turn it on somehow?
This block has a lot of extra control (image size, width, padding for each elements etc). Is there a way to get these controls for other blocks as well?
Hi everyone,
I want to create borders around every posts in a block (say block 4 and 16). Also, if possible I want to have a grey background, and the post title (and excerpts) would be in a white background.
Additionally, each posts should have the same width, meaning the borders would be the same size. Some posts may fill the whole block, some may not.
Please let me know if this is possible with the Newspaper 9.0.
Hi everyone,
I am very new to all this. I am trying to have different kinds of modules for various pages. This is what happens:
1) A module with only title and image: I achieved it by turning off everything in the “Meta info on Modules/Blocks” under the “Blocks Settings”.
2) However, not this has become global settings. How do I only selectively turn off/on these options (for the same module)?
Similarly, I need to turn on date, authors name, category names for various blocks.
Please let me know how to do it.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for your helpful reply again.
I was wondering if there was a way to cut down the number of posts to 5, in the Flex blocks, however add a page number icon at the bottom, so that the user can access the next five posts by pressing on the ‘2’ page number.
Also, when I try to use TD composer to edit the page, sometimes it doesn’t load and I am left with an empty screen even when I try refreshing. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks.
Hello, When I’m edit my page it’s appear this error :

hello, I just bought this theme. It is amazing and easy to use, but I have been facing some real issues, which made me really unsatisfied and disappointed.
1. When I was uploading the default theme demo, it kept saying error connecting with server; however the demo was downloaded but in a weird way, as if it is broken.
A. The wide of the page is small then the demo
B. The Menu was totally broken, especially in mobile version!

thankfully, after spending 8H trying to fix this weird issue, I figure out the solution, which is this adding this custom CSS code.
#td-mobile-nav {
position:fixed;
}
The problem is why the hell, does this mobile-nav appears in desktop version? and it’s broken in mobile version.
Please I need the theme to be wider as the demo, and the menu work without this additional css.
—————————
2. Facebook counter is not working ! it is showing 0 followers!
Please fix this issue, I even uninstall and reinstall social counter from theme panel but facebook still not working.
—————————
3. The theme is far from being mobile friendly !!!! too many render blocking CSS and JS , I used TD booster but it said conflects with WP security plugin! and it is out of questions to delete this important plugin; so I used autoptimize plugin! he successfully combine CSS, but no JS are combined !!!!
Test in google test speed page, show 20% for mobile and 80% in desktop !!! huge difference !!
—————————
4. The menu in mobile is not working correctly until the whole page load !
5. when I activate TOP BAR, the mobile menu doesn’t work at all.
6. Lazy load is not working at all in mobile ! ( google test speed page ) show warning about lazy load in mobile.
—————————
I am tired, it is 02:14 A.M , I spend the past 11 Hours trying to figure out solutions! but I failed!
I need TAGDIV support !
Please help me, ^^
ps: my website is in Arabic, but that is not the reason for those issues anyway.
Hi, thanks. But how to fix it without CSS coding? Because it’s a flaw. You delete element and you have a big hole. I don’t think that it was supposed this way: to adjust spaces between blocks with CSS. Most users do not know CSS. I am just trying to understand why and how to avoid it. Have you purposefully designed this hole between the header and the first block? Maybe if I use other blocks there will be no problem?
Hello,
i’ve installed the newspaper template and when i activate it after activated all required plugin i don’t have the drag and drop interface the texte look like this [vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][td_block_trending_now sort="random_posts" limit="5" custom_title="FLASH INFO" header_color="#AC0000" category_ids="354" ][td_block_big_grid_3 td_grid_style="td-grid-style-1" sort="a-la-une"][/vc_column]
like wordpress text view mode.
Please someone can help me to resolve my problem please
Thank you
Hi,
With composer, this is possible only if you do not hide the from all devices
https://www.screencast.com/t/yavEE6Uj4vn.
https://www.screencast.com/t/xATftIa1
Select other devices, click on the row, go back to desktop and set it visible
If you want to display them all in the front page please add the below css in Newspaper>Theme panel>Custom code>Custom css
.tdc-content-wrap .vc_row {
display: block!important;
}
https://www.screencast.com/t/efGu1DBA3Ek7
https://www.screencast.com/t/9TFPGJH5Y
The first solution is the best.
Hope this will help you.
Hi,
Can you please suggest a plugin or a way to overcome lazy load issue?
Note:
1) When we add a plugin to overcome the lazy load issue, tagdiv speed booster deactivates itself and we face a render-blocking problem.. ( We are aware of the plugins that are compatible with the tagdiv speedbooster plugin, we just try to find a way)
2) If we use jetpack to overcome lazy load issue, our speed reduces! (While using the Jetpack plugin, we only activated lazy load feature of the jetpack. Other features were disabled)
Thank you
Great! I didn’t see all the controls of flex block 5 before. That’s exactly what I need.
Thanks!
Hi,
If this is what you want to achieve https://www.screencast.com/t/S0Z6r6e8 please add the below css in newspaper>theme panel>custom code>custom css
.td_block_23 .td_module_18 .meta-info-container {
text-align: left;
}
Also if you want to have more control you can use a flex block ( flex block 5 is similar with block 23 )
Thanks.
Hi,
I’m using block 23 on my homepage and title, author name, excerpts, etc are all aligned in center. Can I change settings so it will align to the left or is this only possible by CSS? If only by CSS, how can I manage this?
Thanks for your help!
